Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, arrived in Lviv, a western part of Ukraine, and visited the Superhuman Centre on April 10, according to a source from Euromaidan Press.

The Telegraph reported later on 10 April that Prince Harry has secretly visited Ukraine, accompanied by four veterans.

This trip was not disclosed until the prince left Ukraine. The Duke, who served for 10 years in the British army, is the second member of the royal family to visit Ukraine after Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh.

The Superhuman Centre’s founder Andrii Stavnitser confirmed Prince Harry’s visit on Facebook, saying, “He met with all the boys who took part in the games this winter – not just the super ones. He is incredibly responsive and emotionally generous. He gave everyone a hug, complimented everyone, and gave a tour of the Centre with care and undivided interest.”

“This is my first visit to Ukraine, and it will definitely not be my last. It has been a great honour and privilege to be here with the Invictus delegation, some of our athletes and participants from the UK over the past decade,” Prince said, according to the centre’s founder.

In 2014, Prince Harry founded The Invictus Games Foundation, a global sporting competition for wounded and injured servicemen and women and veterans. Ukrainian veterans have also participated in the games.

Earlier in February 2025, Prince Harry met Superhumans CEO Olha Rudneva at the Invictus Games in Canada. She presented the Duke of Sussex with a bracelet from the rehabilitation centre that bears the Prince’s initials and the inscription “whoever saves one life saves the whole world.”

The Superhuman Centre is a rehabilitation center where wounded soldiers are treated. Opened in 2023, the facility offers a full range of services, including reconstructive surgery, hearing restoration, psychological support, and rehabilitation. It also operates its own prosthetics lab, which tailors customized prostheses from scratch to meet each patient’s needs.
